Chapter 178
Those who are born are called third class,
Those who strive are second-class.
Those who enjoy are first-class.
So they say.
But what do you call those who have surpassed the first class?
The third class is a realm that nature can never reach.
That is genius.
A common term for those with heavenly talent.
And those who have reached the category of genius are the ones who cultivate it and express their excellence beyond what the naturally gifted can strive for and enjoy.
It didn’t take long for Galpyeong to realize that he was in that category of genius and that he was different. He was able to defeat a first-class swordsman with his mediocre third-class swordsmanship, and he was able to defeat a peak master with the secret weapon he had stolen from the first-class swordsman, proving to himself that he was a genius.
I am a genius.
If there was one thing Galpyeong had learned from his countless deaths in the days when he had nothing to fear, it was that many in the world were afraid of death.
So what.
Asa, like dying of hunger.
Dying because you picked up the wrong medicine and there’s no way to get it right away.
Sudden death, where you don’t know how or when you’re going to die, or sudden death.
But for Galpyeong, who had witnessed countless deaths, death was not something he was afraid of, and so he faced the world fearlessly, and as a genius, he came to enlightenment faster than anyone else.
He realized that the only way to survive is to jump in to die.
Even when he reached his peak, he ran and swung his sword like a racehorse that never stopped.
